No Price, but LTE is Coming

When we asked ASUS about the availability, they said that the tablet will be available here by mid-September. They also revealed that two models will be brought into Malaysia – Wifi-only and LTE-equipped. As for storage options, the answer is a little bit more vague as they are not confirmed as yet if the 16GB will be joining the 32GB brother on the shelves here.

ASUS also mentioned that no pricing has been set yet for the tablet, but it could be in the ballpark of the original 2012 Nexus 7 when it was first launched – around RM1099.
